Mongolia: National action programme on climate change
The implementation of the NAPCC to 2021 is aimed to help Mongolia create the capacity to adapt to climate change and establish a foundation for green economic growth and development. The goals of the program include to ensure environmental sustainability, to develop socioeconomic sectors adapted to climate change, to reduce of vulnerabilities and risks, and to mitigate GHG emissions as well as to promote economic effectiveness and efficiency and implementation of ‘green growth’ policies.
The National Action Program on Climate Change will be implemented in two phases over the period from 2011 to 2021. In the first phase (2011-2016), national mitigation and adaptation capacity will be strengthened; legal environment, structure, institutional and management system will be set-up; and community and public awareness and participation in climate change activities will be improved. In the second phase (2017-2021), climate change adaptation measures will be implemented and GHG mitigation actions will commence.
